Chapter 1676: Chapter 1665: Perfected Tenth-Level Sword Intent
Inside the Dragon Origin Secret Realm.
After the Unyielding Sword Intent within Ye Chenfeng successfully advanced to the eighth level.
The imposing aura of unyielding and pride emanating from the giant statue became more intense.
This aura sometimes felt like a mountain pressing down fiercely on Ye Chenfeng; other times, it was like a flood breaching a dam, fiercely impacting Ye Chenfeng.
The spiritual qi river within Ye Chenfeng’s meridians surged to its peak, and the eighth-level Unyielding Sword Intent within him kept operating without a pause.
Curled up in Ye Chenfeng’s arms, the Tianjin Mouse, Xiaojin, was securely protected by Ye Chenfeng’s spiritual energy. No matter how great the pressure Ye Chenfeng endured, he couldn’t let anything happen to the little creature, as it was essential for treasure hunting in the Dragon Origin Secret Realm!
The blood in Ye Chenfeng’s body churned, his hands tightly gripping the Qingyun Sword embedded in the ground. Even though his physical strength had reached the initial stage of the Second Heavenly Layer of the Reincarnation Realm, he still felt a ripping pain.
Blood gushed from Ye Chenfeng’s mouth, quickly staining his clothes with its warm redness.
Feeling the continuous assault of unyielding and prideful aura from the giant statue, and the ceaseless operation of the eighth-level Unyielding Sword Intent within him, Ye Chenfeng suddenly entered a special comprehension state, closing his eyes tightly.
"Unyielding spirit, kneel not to heaven, kneel not to earth, kneel to no creature under heaven."
"If heaven blocks me, I shall break the sky."
"If earth blocks me, I shall rend the earth."
"Unyielding and proud, never bowing, gods and demons alike, slain with one sword."
Ye Chenfeng’s aura completely transformed, as the eighth-level Unyielding Sword Intent within him operated, his entire being resembled a sharp treasure sword, but at that moment, the sword’s brilliance withdrew and became restrained, yet the sword intent within Ye Chenfeng surged even more powerfully, ready to erupt like a volcano at any moment.
In other words, Ye Chenfeng’s sword intent, restrained within, was entirely condensed; when wielded, its power would multiply exponentially.
The bottleneck of the eighth-level Unyielding Sword Intent loosened in an instant, seamlessly advancing into the ninth-level Unyielding Sword Intent.
However.
The unyielding and prideful aura on the giant statue continued unabated, while the operation of the ninth-level Unyielding Sword Intent accelerated. The ninth-level Unyielding Sword Intent, being perfected, rapidly absorbed all of the unyielding and prideful aura emanating from the statue.
Time slowly flowed by.
Initially, the aura from the statue actively attacked Ye Chenfeng, but now the ninth-level Unyielding Sword Intent within Ye Chenfeng autonomously extracted the unyielding and prideful aura from the giant statue.
The two suns in the sky slowly descended.
Nightfall came.
Two silver-white moons hung in the sky.
Ye Chenfeng stood there clasping the Qingyun Sword stuck in the ground, eyes closed, standing tall and proud.
One day!
Two days!
Three days!
After three days, the ninth-level Unyielding Sword Intent permeated Ye Chenfeng’s body densely.
Not far from the gigantic statue, the river formed by flowing lava boiled.
Emerging from the crimson lava, one by one, were strange beast heads, followed by thirty or so peculiar beasts stepping out from the lava river.
These beasts looked somewhat like hippopotamuses in form and stature, but their skin was red, with expressions much fiercer than those of hippos, and continuous hissing sounds came from their throats.
These beasts were called Blood Flame Beasts, and although not extinct in the Earth Profound Realm, they weren’t common either.
Blood Flame Beasts preferred living in magma, and typically, adult Blood Flame Beasts had power around the initial stage of the Third Heavenly Layer of the Creation Realm.
The Blood Flame Beasts were inherently savage, usually immersing themselves in magma in sleep. If startled awake, they would become immensely agitated and bloodthirsty.
Clearly, Ye Chenfeng had stood in front of the giant statue for three days, and during these three days, the intensity of the Unyielding Sword Intent within him had certainly awakened those thirty-plus Blood Flame Beasts.
The Blood Flame Beasts appeared bulky but were not slow.
The thirty-plus Blood Flame Beasts rushed toward Ye Chenfeng, opening their gaping maws, emitting a strong stench.
Yet Ye Chenfeng, with eyes still shut, continued gripping the Qingyun Sword stuck in the ground.
Since entering this special state, Ye Chenfeng no longer felt the impact of the statue’s aura.
Watching thirty-plus Blood Flame Beasts at the initial stage of the Third Heavenly Layer of the Creation Realm approaching closer and closer.
"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! ——"
The sound of the Blood Flame Beasts’ massive feet stamping the ground reverberated in the air, causing the surrounding ground to tremble slightly.
The increase in ferocity of the ninth-level Unyielding Sword Intent within Ye Chenfeng’s body absorbed the unyielding and prideful aura from the statue even more intensely.
Cracks appeared densely on the feet of the giant statue.
The multitude of cracks extended upward from the statue’s feet.
The unyielding and prideful aura emanating from the statue became increasingly faint.
In a certain instant.
All the unyielding and prideful aura within the statue was completely absorbed by the ninth-level Unyielding Sword Intent.
The entire massive statue was covered with a dense network of cracks.
Simultaneously.
The thirty-plus Blood Flame Beasts reached right in front of Ye Chenfeng, their gaping maws ready to tear into Ye Chenfeng’s body.
Meanwhile, the continuously condensing ninth-level Unyielding Sword Intent within Ye Chenfeng shook violently.
With a loud "boom!"
The ninth-level Unyielding Sword Intent exploded within Ye Chenfeng’s body, much like a flood of tenth-level Unyielding Sword Intent, surging out from within Ye Chenfeng.
After draining the unyielding and prideful aura within the giant statue, the ninth-level Unyielding Sword Intent within Ye Chenfeng smoothly transitioned into the pinnacle tenth-level Unyielding Sword Intent.
Much like uncontrollable torrents, waves of pinnacle tenth-level Unyielding Sword Intent flared from Ye Chenfeng’s body.
Immense sword energy circled around Ye Chenfeng.
The three Blood Flame Beasts at the forefront were instantly devoured by the enormous sword energy.
In the blink of an eye.
The three Blood Flame Beasts at the initial stage of the Third Heavenly Layer of the Creation Realm were instantly shredded into mere fragments.
As for the Blood Flame Beasts trailing them, they continued rushing recklessly, unable to halt their momentum.
At this moment.
The uncontrolled, massive sword energy emanating from Ye Chenfeng’s body increased in both quantity and the area it covered.
Chunks of flesh scattered in the air.
The air was dense with a rich, bloody scent permeating every inch.
The remaining Blood Flame Beasts were also immediately shredded into a bloody mist by the giant sword energy.
Within a moment, the thirty-plus Blood Flame Beasts at the initial stage of the Third Heavenly Layer of the Creation Realm perished at the hands of Ye Chenfeng’s pinnacle tenth-level Unyielding Sword Intent.
Keep in mind, this was the uncontrolled tenth-level Unyielding Sword Intent emanating from Ye Chenfeng! Imagine the vastly increased power if it were purposefully wielded!
Ye Chenfeng slowly opened his eyes, and within them flashed two extremely sharp sword gleams.
He retrieved the Qingyun Sword from the ground and placed it on his back.
Meanwhile, pieces of stone began to fall from the densely cracked giant statue.
Ye Chenfeng’s figure swiftly retreated.
With a thunderous crash.
The entirety of the huge statue crumbled down instantaneously.
It was the unyielding and prideful aura within the giant statue that enabled Ye Chenfeng to achieve the pinnacle tenth-level Unyielding Sword Intent in such a short span; otherwise transitioning to the pinnacle Sword Intent would have likely taken longer!
Although Ye Chenfeng almost fell into volcanic magma upon entering the Dragon Origin Secret Realm, and encountered this strange giant statue, it all now seemed absolutely worthwhile.
Not only has the power of the Green Flame reached a level capable of incinerating experts at the initial stage of the Fourth Heavenly Layer of the Creation Realm, but the seventh-level Unyielding Sword Intent has also advanced to the pinnacle tenth-level Unyielding Sword Intent.
